About this study

Official title: The Use of Positron Emission Tomography (PET) and Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) to Assess the Effects of Anti-neoplastic Therapy on Tumor Associated Vasculature

RATIONALE: Diagnostic procedures, such as PET and MRI scans, may help to measure a patient's response to treatment.

PURPOSE: This diagnostic trial is studying how well PET and/or MRI scans work in assessing changes in tumor blood supply in patients receiving antiangiogenesis therapy.

Read the detailed description

OBJECTIVES:

  • Evaluate the ability of positron emission tomography (PET) to assess the effect of therapy directed against tumor vasculatures on tumor blood flow and tumor blood volume in patients enrolled on a treatment protocol evaluating a therapeutic modality effecting the tumor associated vasculature.
  • Evaluate the ability of PET to assess the effects of this type of therapy regimen on tumor uptake of fluorodeoxyglucose in these patients.
  • Evaluate the ability of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to assess the effects of therapy directed against the tumor vasculature on tumor blood flow and tumor vascular density in these patients.
  • Compare the findings on PET and/or MRI with those obtained from conventional CT in this patient population.

OUTLINE: This is a diagnostic study conducted concurrently with a therapeutic modality study.

Patients have magnetic resonance imaging and/or positron emission tomography (PET) scans performed prior to start of therapy, 6 weeks and 16 weeks following the initiation of therapy, and 6 weeks following the completion of therapy. Each scan requires about 1-3 hours. Patients receive up to 3 different PET scans including tumor blood flow scan with H2015, tumor blood volume scan with 11CO, and glucose uptake scan with fludeoxyglucose F 18.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 145 patients will be accrued for this study within 2 years.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing magnetic resonance imaging, positron emission tomography and fludeoxyglucose F 18 in people with Unspecified Adult Solid Tumor, Protocol Specific, run by National Institutes of Health Clinical Center (CC) at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 26 Sep 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 26 Sep 2016.
